Benzimidazoles containing furyl and thienyl substituents at C-2 were prepared by condensation of o-phenylenediamine and corresponding carboxylic acids in the presence of polyphosphoric acid. The 2-heteroarylbenzimidazoles showed tautomerism in dimethyl sulfoxide solution while 2-phenylbenzimidazole did not. The tautomerism appeared to be taking place by intermolecular relay of protons between stacked molecules.

In an attempt to design a greener approach for the synthesis of a potent class of antimicrobials, 1,2-phenylenediamine derivatives were reacted with various 1/2-carboxylic acid-substituted naphthalene derivatives to generate a series of naphthyl-substituted benzimidazole derivatives (11–19) using polyphosphoric acid as catalyst under microwave irradiation and conventional synthesis method. This is an eco-friendly and swift reaction method for a synthetic approach to diverse benzimidazoles. Structures of the synthesized compounds were established on the basis of spectral data and they were screened for their antimicrobial activity. Compound 18 showed maximum potency against all Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacterial strains with a minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) value in the range of 7.81–62.50 μg/ml. Only compound 17 was found to be the most active against all fungal strains with a MIC value of 15.62 μg/ml. In this study, we performed molecular docking experiments to understand the interactions between compounds 17 and 18 and E. coli topoisomerase I, and we compared the results obtained with that of 2-(3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)-5-[5-(4-methylpiperazin?1-yl)-1H-benzimidazol-2-yl]-1H-benzimidazole (DMA). Compounds 17 and 18 demonstrated strong interactions with important active site residues, similar to DMA. As a result, the compounds obtained from this study can be used in designing new potent inhibitors of E. coli topoisomerase I.

The increase in the drug-resistant strains of Mycobacterium tuberculosis has led researchers to new drug targets. The development of new compounds that have effective inhibitory properties with the selective vital structure of Mycobacterium tuberculosis is required in new scientific approaches. The most important of these approaches is the development of inhibitor molecules for Mycobacterium cell wall targets. In this study, first of all, the antitubercular activity of 23 benzimidazole derivatives was experimentally determined. And then molecular docking studies were carried out with 4 different targets: Arabinosyltransferase C (EmbC), Filamentous Temperature Sensitive Mutant Z (FtsZ), Protein Tyrosine Phosphatase B (PtpB), and Decaprenylphosphoryl-β-D-ribose-2′-oxidase (DprE1). It has been determined that benzimidazole derivatives show activity through the DprE1 enzyme. It is known that DprE1, which has an important role in the synthesis of the cell envelope from Arabinogalactan, is also effective in the formation of drug resistance. Due to this feature, the DprE1 enzyme has become an important target for drug development studies. Also, it was chosen as a target for this study. This study aims to identify molecules that inhibit DprE1 for the development of more potent and selective antitubercular drugs. For this purpose, molecular docking studies by AutoDock Vina, and CDOCKER and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations and in silico ADME/Tox analysis were implemented for 23 molecules. The molecules exhibited binding affinity values of less than ?8.0 kcal/mol. After determining the compound’s anti-TB activities by a screening test, the best-docked results were detected using compounds 20, 21, and 30. It was found that 21, was the best molecule with its binding affinity value, which was supported by MD simulations and in silico ADME modeling results. Communicated by Ramaswamy H. Sarma.
An Unexpected Formation of 2-Arylbenzimidazoles from α,α-Diiodo-α’-acetoxyketones and o-Phenylenediamines

An unusual reactivity of the α,α-diiodo-α’-acetoxyketones with o-phenylenediamines is reported through the formation of 2-arylbenzimidazoles. A systematic study through a series of fruitful control experiments and isolation of key intermediates unravelled the unprecedented domino mechanism. This process involves a stepwise two-carbon fragmentation pathway through domino and sequential amidation–aziridination–decarbonylation–I2-mediated aminative cyclization–oxidation reactions. This strategy employs no additives like oxidant, metal catalyst, bases, and represents yet another novel reactivity profile of the building blocks α,α-diiodo-α’-acetoxyketones.

Substituted benzimidazoles and pyrimidazoles are an important group of heterocyclic aromatic organic compounds in the field of medicinal chemistry. A one-step microwave accelerated synthesis of substituted benzo- and pyridine-fused 1H-imidazoles has been described. Mechanistically, the reaction proceeds by reacting substituted 2-fluoronitrobenzene and substituted arylamine through the formation of N-hydroxy intermediate, which at higher temperature cleaves to afford the desired product. This approach achieved reductions in reaction times, higher yields, cleaner reactions than the previously described synthetic processes.

Developing green-safe, efficient and recyclable catalysts is crucial for the chemical industry. So far, organic photocatalysis has been proved to be an environmentally friendly and energy-efficient synthetic technology compared with traditional metal catalysis. As a versatile catalytic platform, hyper-crosslinked polymers (HCPs) with large surface area and high stability are easily prepared. In this report, we successfully constructed two porous HCP photocatalysts (TZ-HCPs) featurings-tetrazine units and surface areas larger than 700 m2g?1through Friedel-Crafts alkylation reactions. The rational energy-band structures and coexisting micro- and mesopores endow TZ-HCPs with excellent activities to realize the green synthesis of benzimidazoles (28 examples, up to 99% yield, 0.5-4.0 h) in ethanol. Furthermore, at least 21 iterative catalytic runs mediated by TZ-HCP1D were performed efficiently, with 96-99% yield. This study of TZ-HCPs sheds light on the wide-ranging prospects of application of HCPs as metal-free and green photocatalysts for the preparation of fine chemicals.

Metal-free covalent organic frameworks (COFs) as visible-light active and recyclable photocatalysts afford an eco-friendly and sustainable option to classical photosensitizers, which usually require noble metals (iridium, ruthenium, rhodium, etc.) to produce photocatalytic activity. Most classical small molecule photosensitizers have poor recyclability with certain limitations. As a result, it is of great significance to develop a metal-free and easily recyclable COF photocatalyst. In this study, we designed and synthesized a new type of COF photocatalyst (BTT-TPA-COF) in which benzotrithiophene and triphenylamine units are alternately connected. It has high specific surface area, permanent porosity and good stability. In addition, this design strategy can effectively adjust the band gap, energy level and photoelectric performance of BTT-TPA-COF. As a metal-free photocatalyst, BTT-TPA-COF exhibits high-efficiency photocatalytic activity, excellent substrate tolerance and excellent recyclability for the synthesis of 2-arylbenzimidazole compounds. This research not only puts forward a design strategy for high-efficiency photocatalysts, but also broadens the application range of COF materials in photocatalytic organic reactions.
